Sovereign wealth funds create a digital asset custody gap

Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) are increasingly seeking exposure to digital assets, primarily through regulated vehicles like Spot Bitcoin ETFs and publicly traded companies with significant crypto exposure. This move reflects a broader pivot in their real estate allocations towards digital infrastructure and AI-related assets. However, the critical distinction between security tokens and utility tokens, along with associated licensing, custody, and disclosure requirements, creates a significant gap in tailored, compliant custody solutions for SWFs.
